The The Pas Minor Hockey Association held its annual general meeting on May 13, 2026, to elect its new executive board and celebrate a successful season for local youth players.

The association, which has served the community since 1934, is entering the 2026-2027 season with a mix of returning members and new leadership. The incoming executive includes Vice President Pat Rollins, Treasurer Kate Iles, Referee in Chief Marni Streit, Tournament Coordinator Katie Stratychuk, Fundraising and Volunteer Coordinator Jenna DuBois, Registrar Umberto Willner, Coach Coordinator Lantz Hiebert, Player Advocate Scott Donovan, and Equipment Manager Courtney Hiebert.

This leadership transition follows the departure of three long-serving board members: Kevin Pettit, Dallas Ginter, and Kelsey Paddock. Paddock will continue her involvement in the sport as the Female Hockey Director for the NorMan Region.

The meeting also highlighted recent achievements, including provincial championship titles for the U15 Rural A team and the U13 Female team. To recognize contributions from the community, the association presented several awards: Kevin Pettit was named Coach of the Year, Beth Whyte received the Larry Mayer Volunteer of the Year award, Justin Ducharme was recognized for his dedication to the house league program, and Janet ‘Babs’ Hallgrimson was named Volunteer Rookie of the Year. Officials Rylan Kellington and Jacob Blue were also honored for their work on the ice.
